Nationwide Crackdown on Just Stop Oil Activists Planning Airport Disruptions

In a coordinated effort across England, police have arrested 27 supporters of the climate activism group Just Stop Oil. The arrests, which included some of the group's 'key organisers,' were made during dawn raids in London, Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, Devon, Essex, Manchester, Surrey, Sussex, Norfolk, and West Yorkshire. The Metropolitan Police stated that these individuals were suspected of plotting to disrupt operations at airports during the summer holiday season. This move comes as authorities aim to prevent potential chaos and ensure the smooth functioning of travel infrastructure during one of the busiest times of the year.
